In the past, the quarterdeck of a standard sailing ship is located behind the ship's main mast. The quarterdeck is used as a ceremonial area of the ship. Nowadays this deck is used as a stern and holds secondary weapons or seaplane catapults

My best guess is that it references the poor manners of sailors (to curse like a sailor). The quarterdeck is part of an old sailing ship, and sailors (usually all male) where not known for their gentlemanly behaviour.

A Navy Ships Quarterdeck is considered a ceremonial area and should be treated as such. No skylarking or loitering is allowed. The Officer of the Deck has complete responsibility and authority on the Quarterdeck and should never be challenged. On approach from the ships brow to the quarterdeck one must turn and face the flag (aft) or salute the flag if military and covered. One must then turn and show ID and salute the Officer Of the Deck and ask their permission to come aboard (enlisted) or state that they have permission to come aboard (officers). When leaving the ship it is done in the reverse order and one asks permission to go ashore (enlisted) or states that they have permission to go ashore (officer). Hats or headgear are not allowed on the quarterdeck unless they are part of the wearers uniform. The Quarterdeck should not be used as a passage from one part of the ship to another. If it is necessary to do so permission from the Officer of the Deck must be requested and granted.

Quoted from....'Naval Terms and Customs' There is evidence that the marked respect paid the quarterdeck aboard ship today had its origin many hundreds of years ago. In the days of Greek and Roman sea power, obeisances were made to the pagan altar, which was placed aft. Later the same respect was paid the shrines of the Virgin similarly located. Still later the "King's colors," which were a symbol of church and state combined, became the object of respect. One is impressed with the thought that the quarterdeck has always been the honored part of the ship. It retains its "sanctity" today. (The name poop deck derives from the Latin word puppis, a name given the sacred deck where the pupi or doll images of the deities were placed. JWC, LT, USN

Upon approaching the quarterdeck of any ship or submarine via its brow, you first come to attention (if a military member), face the National Ensign at the stern of the ship, salute, face the Officer of the Day/Deck (OOD) or the quarterdeck/topside watch, salute, and say "Request permission to come aboard". You of course add "Sir" if the person present is an Officer.
For civilians, they approach the quarterdeck, acknowledge the Ensign, (veterans may salute if under cover, civilians remove hat) turn and face the OOD or watch, and repeat the same phrase. They will then ask your business and request ID, verify any security clearance required to board, as well as possibly searching anything you are carrying.
For Flag Officers and Commanding Officers, the quarterdeck watch will also strike the appropriate number of bells on the ship's bell, and announce their arrival (by command title) over the 1MC (general announcement circuit).

If it is a commissioned U. S. Navy vessel and you are in uniform, at the top of the brow come to attention, face the Ensign (flag) located at the fantail or aft end of the ship and salute the Ensign. Then face and salute the Officer of the Deck on the Quarterdeck and "Request permission to come aboard Sir".
If you are in civilian attire, at the top of the brow come to attention, face the Ensign (flag) located on the fantail or aft end of the ship. Then face the Office of the Deck on the Quarterdeck and "Request permission to come aboard Sir".
I don't think civilian vessels stand on ceremony very much.

It depends on the vessel. If it's a ship, it's the Quarterdeck Watch. If it's on a submarine, it's the Topside Security Watch. They're essentially the same function, though submarine watches also keep tabs on ship draft (rudder draft marks.
1 answer
Upon arriving or departing, the Quarterdeck watch (surface ship) or topside watch (submarine) strikes the bell 4 times.
The watch announces over the ship's general announcement circuit (1mc) by ringing the bell and then announcing the officer is arriving or departing. The sequence is 2 bells, short pause, 2 bells, then that the CO is arriving/departing. This is also done for any flag officer or other CO arriving or departing.
For example:
If the CO of my old boat, USS RAY, were departing, the procedure would be:
(on the 1mc) 2 bells, pause, 2 bells, "RAY, departing".
The CO is always referred to by ship name in these instances. For CO's of other boats, ships, or ashore/flag commands, the procedure is the same, substituting their ship or command name to announce their arrival or departure.
For example:
CO of Submarine Squadron 4 would be "Submarine Squadron 4 arriving"
CO of USS Seawolf would be "Seawolf, arriving"
Each officer is afforded 4 rings on the bell.

In Treasure Island, Long John Silver is a pirate who was quartermaster under the notorious Captain Flint. Long John Silver had a pet parrot called Captain Flint, often seen sitting on his shoulder where she would nibble on seeds. A quartermaster on a pirate ship ranked higher than any officer except the captain himself, and could veto the captain's decisions whenever the ship was not in a battle. The quartermaster was elected by the crew and one of his tasks was to lead the boarding party from the quarterdeck during the boarding attack.
This is just some Basic Information, not much to do with his death. Sorry, try Wikipedia, that has Great information about him and everything!

Using the distributive property of multiplication over addition, 2*[2 - 2] = 2*[2 + (-2)] = 2*2 + 2*(-2)LHS = 2*0 = 0
RHS = 4 + 2*(-2)
Therefore 2*(-2) = -4 and, by commutativity, -2*2 = -4
Next
-2*[2 - 2] = -2*[2 + (-2)] = -2*2 + -2*(-2)
LHS = -2*0 = 0
RHS = -4 + -2*(-2)
Therefore -2 times -2 = +4
